SSL certificates

Show customers your website is secure

An SSL certificate encrypts the connection between your website and its visitors, and replaces the browser's "Not secure" warning with HTTPS.

Questions

SSL FAQ

Do I need an SSL certificate?

If your site has a login, a contact form or a checkout, yes. Browsers mark pages without HTTPS as not secure, and search engines favour secure sites.

Which type should I choose?

DV is enough for most information sites. Choose OV or EV when visitors need assurance about the company behind the site, for example when they pay or share personal data.

Can I use a certificate with hosting from another provider?

Yes. A certificate is issued for your domain and can be installed on any compatible server.

Are SSL certificates refundable?

No. Once a certificate has been issued by the certificate authority it cannot be refunded. See the Terms of Service.
